Pet care experience

Friendly, Reliable Pet Lover

Hi! I’m Maria—an absolute animal lover with over 15 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and currently have a sweet Newfoundland named Brady and a friendly cat named Tuna of my own. Brady and Tuna are friendly and gentle, and I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety first. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and right at home. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet—I use Rover myself as a pet parent, so I understand what matters most: communication, consistency, and genuine love. I am happy to provide personalized attention based on your pet’s routine, preferences, and needs no matter their age or breed. I love to send plenty of photos and updates so you feel connected to your pet while you’re away. I offer drop-ins, walks, and in-home sitting (yours, not mine), and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to a tee. Whether it’s a quick check-in or an extended stay, I treat your pets and home they’re my own! Thanks so much for considering me—I’d love to meet your pet and give them all the care they deserve!

Maria is the best, my go-to dog sitter/walker! My dog adores her. She’s very attentive and communicative which I so appreciate because I get nervous leaving my dog with other people. He’s always very excited to see her and it makes me feel so much better when I need to be at work or out of town.

I have never left my babies in 5 years. Maria graciously met Billy and Louis before my trip. She communicated with me several times a day and sent photos. I knew they were in professional loving hands. If I travel again I would ask anyone else to take care of my babies.

I am so thankful I found them! My 5 month old pup was happy and spoiled all weekend! I was reassured by pictures the whole time I was away and would recommend to anyone!

Maria and Connor are AMAZING with our pups. This was our 2nd time booking them and we would 10 more times over! They are very attentive, exercised our dogs, and sent us lots of pics and videos of our dogs while we were away. They even cleaned up our house! We love them! ☺️

Maria and Connor were amazing with our 2 German Shepherd dogs! They were very responsive and sent us tons of photos and updates while we were away! We would use them again in the future & recommend them to anyone!
